Would it be reasonable for average person to suspect Big Co. with huge Vested Interestᵀᴹ had / has the lions share of lobbying power in this scenario? I don't know whether this is true in fact, in this specific case, but as a fairly average sort of person I suspect it might be. Therefore, it may be reasonable to blame Big Co., but you're probably right in that it won't do much good at this point.
